Patricia Jaeger Obituary

Jaeger, Patricia "Patty"
Patricia (Patty) Jaeger passed peacefully on March 31, 2012 at the age of 85 after a long battle with Parkinson's disease. She will be greatly missed by her husband of 53 years, Ray Jaeger, and her four children, Kristi White, Kim Phillips, Kenda Gonzales, Kirk Jaeger, and their spouses. Patty was devoted to caring for her children and, later, her nine grandchildren. She was also a great grandmother to three. Patty had a passion for cooking, which she hated, and she shared it with her daughters. She was born in Pennsylvania nee Patricia Teeters, and relocated to Arizona in the 1950s. The Jaegers have been longtime residents of South Tempe, dating back to when, south of Baseline, Rural Road was actually rural. Services will be private. In lieu of flowers, please send a donation to National Parkinson's Foundation, PO Box 5018 Hagerstown, MD 21741-5018. www.parkinsons.org Arrangements entrusted to Tempe Mortuary.

I have many fond memories of Patty growing up on 71st Street. Her passing has resurrected those great memories today and probably for days to come and I am thankful for that. It has reminded me how much I miss the fun times I had with Kim and Kristi. My condolences to the Jaeger family and extended family. The wonderful memories she helped create will live on....

You were the best Mother-in-Law a guy could ever ask for. You treated me like your son from the moment I met you. Kristi, the girls, and I will never forget you, and all you did for us. Rest in peace Grandma Patty.

All our love,

Dan, Kristi, Brooke, & Brittany
